Put me in the positive category, I love Stan's! Just last week I ran over something that put a 2mm puncture in my tire. I think it was a barbed wire point. Sure that I was a goner, I just kept riding and riding, and riding and riding... sealed right up! I don't have enough miles on them to tell you about trail-side maintenance for when they don't work, but I carry an extra spare tube for that occasion. Supposed to be a super pain when/if it happens though.
